He Runs n MUCK anu hreakS up
Prize Fight.
The prize fight between William Somers,
of Chicago, and an unknown from Michigan
City, at Hessville, Ind, was indefinitely post
poned by the action OF Claude Kimball, a
cowboy just from the West, who, with u "A
calibre revolver in each hand, ran muck
through the crowd of q hundred sports
present Kimball fired indiscriminately
into the assemblage and for few mo-
ments the saloon, where the fist fight was
to have taken place seemed pandemonium.
Peter Reich, the saloon keeper, pulled re-
volver on Kimball. There was an exchange
of shots, and Reich fell mortally wounded.
Kimball took to the woods He had been
drunk and obstreperous early in the evening
end was put out of the saloon. In revenge
he fired volley into the windows, but no one
was hurt, and the saloon keeper treated it as
joke. The cowboy was quieted down and
put to bed. It was when everything was
in readiness for the prize fight thathe jumped
wildly into the room and began shooting right

time IL is 1t many po nts observed that un-

Fine woods are quiet and medium woods
stronger, though sales at low figures by weak
parties are still mentioned. Growers express
confidence that no reduction on duties will be
made, but the manufacturing demand does
not answer expectations. The dry-goods
trade, very moderate in all branches, is par
ticdlarly dull in wooleus, and the stiffness in
cottons is attributed to sclrcitya of ready
supplies rather than TO large fresh orders.
The boot and shoe trade improves with bet

the leather market still favors buyers. Cur

son for speculative strength, in pork pro-
